It's wonderful to hear you enjoyed the beautiful setting, convenient location, and found the home spacious and clean.

This was a very clean, comfy place to stay at. Everything we needed was available. There was plenty of room for all of us, 6 adults and 3 littles. The kids loved the sand beach to dig in and went into town to the zoo. Very nice zoo. Our host did communicate with us during our stay, which was much appreciated. Thank you.

Everything was absolutely perfect. The house is beautiful , very cozy, and accommodating. Love the Wide open Kitchen with sitting area, Coffee bar area was a wonderful way to start your day, drinking a cup of coffee and watching the sun come up, and for games with the family. Down stairs was spaciousness and was great for watching a family movie together or just visiting. The Hot tub was Amazing and was loved by all. The back deck has comfortable patio furniture to watch the sun set. The fire pit area was great for campfires and somores.Beds are comfortable , Laundry room was great and there was an iron for our dress cloths for the Wedding we attended. We will definitely be returning again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you loved the home and had such an enjoyable stay. It means a lot to us that you found everything clean and well-equipped. You were a wonderful guest, and we’d be happy to host you again anytime!
We had a fun vacation at the lake with lots of fishing, swimming, and beach time. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The property is close enough to Watertown and other recreation areas, so we enjoy little adventures on days where it was a little cool for swimming. We loved that the lake is not very deep near the shore and dock so the littlest could swim around without a life jacket, but could also wear one when they wanted to. Fun vacation!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re happy to hear that your family had such a fun and relaxing vacation at the lake. It sounds like you made the most of your stay with plenty of fishing, swimming, beach time, and little adventures around Watertown. We’re especially glad the lake and shallow shoreline were a great fit for your littlest swimmers. We’d love to welcome your family back for another fun-filled getaway!
The host reached out several times before our stay and everything was as described. Will definitely stay again.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It means a lot. We are so happy that you had a great experience. Hope to host you all again in the future ☺️.
This is an amazing home to stay at! Enough room for our group that was 9 adults 1 child. We had enough room for our family gathering/birthday party. Couldn't ask for better weather, space, and amenities. Kids enjoyed hot tub and lake time, corn hole, and kayaking was wonderful.Lake is not terribly deep and water was pretty clear. Enjoyed watching wildlife in early morning and around dusk. House was very clean, owners responded quickly when contacted due to a storm causing some damage to patio table. Loved the layout of the house! Coffee bar area was adorable!

About the host
Hosted by Trent Stadheim
I’m a born and raised South Dakota boy, and while work has pulled me away, my heart is still back home. Last year, my wife and I bought what I consider my dream home on my favorite lake development near Watertown—Air Haven. I know the lakes around here well, and in my opinion, this spot is hands down the best place to relax and enjoy lake life.
My parents live just down the road and help take care of the place. I grew up fishing, skiing, wakeboarding, and jet skiing on Lake Pelican. If you're local, you know Kampeska has gotten a bit wild, and you also know the south side of both lakes is where you'll find calm water most summer days. There's nothing better than sipping coffee on the dock in the morning or enjoying a sunset with a cold drink in hand. I hope you love it here as much as I do.
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and lakefront charm. Nestled on a quiet dead-end road with 2 acres of space, it offers a peaceful, secluded atmosphere while still being just minutes from local bars, restaurants, shopping, and the interstate. The property sits right on the lake with a sandy beach, making it feel like your own private waterfront retreat. The surrounding area features unique touches like a private grass runway across the road and scenic meadows perfect for walking and exploring, adding to the one-of-a-kind experience.
What makes this property unique
Our property is truly one-of-a-kind for a vacation getaway. Located right on the lake with a rare sandy beach, it provides the perfect setting for relaxation and fun. The recently remodeled home features beautiful beach-themed décor and thoughtful design throughout. With 3,000 square feet of space, it comfortably accommodates large family groups while offering multiple living areas so everyone can spread out and enjoy their own space. Plus, it’s just a short trip to town, giving you the best of both peaceful lake life and local convenience.
